HP 8600 officejet all in one printer
Microsoft Windows 11

I reloaded my HP 8600 office jet printer app and drivers.  After doing so, my normal desk icon for my scanner did not reappear. the icon was of a scanner with its top open. I have tried and tried to find this icon so can load it on my taskbar.

Can someone show me how to get this icon replaced on my taskbar?
